Guide to Alabama Plastic Surgery

The Gulf Shores area of Alabama has become a major beach destination for tens of thousands of southerners who enjoy the sea and sand. Beaches mean swimsuits and Alabama's residents are no exception to the rule that everyone likes to look the best while wearing the least. From the waters of Mobile Bay to the reaches of Orange Beach, you'll find Alabama's thirty two miles of coastline every bit as inviting as Florida's stretches of Gulf Coast and often much less crowded.

To get in shape for those Alabama shores, many locals these days seek out an aesthetic plastic surgeon to help them get in shape for a summer in the sun. Liposuction and tummy tucks can provide an instantly slimmer midsection and thighs for women who want a jump-start on the outdoor lifestyle. There are several cosmetic plastic surgery centers serving South Alabama and located in Mobile. Many of these centers are as well equipped for plastic surgery as any hospital in the area. The city has enough cosmetic plastic surgeons that you can hold to the standard of a board certified surgeon with plenty of expertise in the surgery you are seeking.

In the northern portion of the state, the Birmingham-Hoover metro area has several major medical centers - among them, the University of Alabama at Birmingham's medical centers which include a major hospital, a large clinic, specialty facilities and several outlying walk-in clinics. The UA medical school in Birmingham has a plastic surgery division that operates daily plastic surgery clinics with attending physicians. The school has embraced aesthetic plastic surgery as a legitimate specialty, highlighting some of its areas of focus on its website:

• microvascular surgery
• aesthetic surgery of the face
• body contouring
• breast reconstruction
• hand surgery
• craniofacial surgery
• reconstruction of traumatic and congenital defects

Cosmetic surgery plays an important role in the training and residency program for plastic surgery at the UAB medical school. That fact raises the bar for the quality of aesthetic surgery practiced in most communities with a medical school. Alabama's Birmingham will be no exception. The school's description notes that, "At University Hospital, the Plastic Surgery Service provides reconstruction of defects throughout the body, be they post-traumatic or post-surgical. A considerable amount of aesthetic surgery is also performed, particularly in the outpatient surgery facilities."

In Alabama one of the South's premier medical centers not only trains aesthetic plastic surgeons, they also operate their own clinics. Alabama is a great place to seek out a highly skilled, board certified plastic surgeon.
